I have 18,400 approx on my stock sport tires and still plenty of tread. I am taking it to NY and back in about 2 weeks as well.

I drive pretty conservatively. Gas is expensive. Tires are expensive. Tickets are expensive. (and insurance could be expensive with a ticket)

I've only been to the 1/8 mile Immokalee track once and ran it maybe 5-6 times.

Just got my new tires. I changed my mind and got the Michelin Pilot Super Sport summer tires. Odometer read 7250 on the original Bridestones. I could have gone a couple hundred miles more but why put off the immanent?

imho its how you drive and care for them. i DD back and forth and most will disagree but i rotated mine from side to side. most will say its a waste of time
but my tire shop does it for free so what the heck. wish i would have taken
some pics of my bridgestones which i just got 32,000 mile out of. but i take care of stuff. just put on a set on hankook v12's. which imo overall is a better
tire then the oem bridgestones.
